Timmyb's scores

Well done on going 9/9 on 10-pins. I'm jealous.

And if you can make that "final tweak" to carry that 10-pin...you're golden.

I frankly don't think there's a tweak to be had in this place. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say there were at least 30 or more left on our pair out of 6 guys. This is the norm at this house. It's known all over town for it.

Saturday Milwaukee area USBC Senior/Non-Senior tournament. Worst. Showing. Ever....

193/163/204 = 560. Was literally just not prepared for the volume of oil they put down. Pretty sure the shot was also near 45'. Throwing a Phaze II dead straight over 8 did not always make it to the pocket, which helped if you missed left a little, but hoowey, if you missed right, it was not coming back. Left at least 4 washouts (stopped counting), and went right of 2 of the 3 10-pins I left (note that number). I've bowled worse in tourneys, but I don't remember when. High note? This house has a Monday 3-man scratch league, and from the liveliness of the pin action we saw, we're thinking this could be a new home next year. Hope tonight is better.

That was the one thing I really hated about tournaments...I'd get my hopes up and sometimes just it ends up a disaster.

Mondays scores. Two steps back, one step forward.

169/234/200 = 603. Started in practice with the Venom, and it looked great. By the time we hit the 3rd frame, both my partners and myself had switched to pearls (mine the AI). Struggled with that until something jogged in my head to do exactly what i did Saturday, and move right. Boom. 9 strikes in game 2, with a 5 bagger to end it. Cannot remember the last time I threw that many consecutive. Did have a 6-7-10 in the middle (damn near made). Last game was clean. I'm hoping I'm on to something here, but this house has dashed my hopes before. Left 7 10-pins again (made all). Average drops back 1 to 202.
